I recently heard a Nebraska farmer admitting that the price of diesel was seriously impacting his business operations and profitability and that the reason for the high price of diesel was trump's war with Iran.
I expected - him having that level of clarity and lucidity and all - that he might pivot to a related form of inflation, trump's import taxes.
But no; he stopped at diesel, regrouped his passionate loyalty for donnie and attacked his interviewer.
"And I can say beyond a shadow of a doubt everybody makes a mistake now and then, and if you say you've never made a mistake, you're a liar".
Most of us never get the opportunity to have our mistakes bring the world economy to its knees and destroy the petrochemical infrastructure of the Arabian Peninsula, but the interviewer chose the mute button.
Delusions, like sleeping dogs, are best left lying, I guess.
I can report that the Barnum tent is still a healthy, happy venue.
